CHICAGO’S “THE FOLD” TO BE FEATURED IN UPCOMING WARNER BROS LEGO NINJAGO MOVIE

The Fold, a Chicago-based band comprised of brothers Dan and George Castady and Matt Pittman, this week announced their music for the LEGO Ninjago TV series will be featured in the upcoming Warner Bros LEGO Ninjago Movie, to hit theaters September 22nd.

The Weekend Whip, the Fold’s original theme song for the series will also be re-released on major music syndication platforms for listening on September 15th.

“In celebration of this amazing announcement, we will be re-releasing a remastered version of The Weekend Whip for our new and longtime fans mid-September,” said Dan Castady. “After six years of working together on the LEGO Ninjago TV series, we’re incredibly encouraged to see our original writing taken to the next cinematic level.”

The LEGO Ninjago Movie is an upcoming 3D computer-animated action-comedy martial arts film that’s being directly by Charlie Bean, with writing by Dan and Kevin Hageman of the LEGO movie and LEGO Ninjago Series. The film will feature a star studded cast including Jackie Chan, Dave Franco, Fred Armisen and Zach Woods. Following the LEGO Ninjago toy line, this is the first film to be based on original LEGO property. It is also the second spin-off installment from the 2014 film, The LEGO Movie, following the release of The LEGO Batman Movie during early 2017.

The Fold has been writing music for the LEGO Ninjago TV series since the show’s inception in 2011. The series airs in over 45-countries worldwide, and will be heading into its 8th season in 2018. To date, The Fold has written over 25-songs for the LEGO series.

“As a band, we’ve been honored to have had countless incredible experiences working alongside one of the largest and most inspiring animated series in our world today,” said Castady. “We look forward to many more years of collaboration, and can’t wait to see the finished LEGO Ninjago Movie product later this September.”

The Fold upholds an image as a band that rocks, keeps it clean, and works tirelessly to project a brand that inspires their fans to stand up for the little guy.
